About me
I like to work with people in an honest and empathetic way, but I do also believe in challenging unhelpful beliefs. I am not there to always agree with you, or to tell you what to do.
One of my main ways of working calls on Person Centred thinking. To put that more simply - I work from the perspective that you know you want to improve your life/are driven to try to do this but beliefs, feelings and even behaviours can make this hard for us. Attachment theories and Object Relations also informs my work. I’m trained in CBT techniques.
I have a BA (Hons) in Psychotherapy & Counselling, in addition to an advanced PGDip in Psychotherapeutic Counselling and an MA in English (& Arts, including Philosophy which I use in my work). I have undertaken training in Dissociation, Hoarding, Grief, Attachment work, Anxiety, CBT and Addiction. I am also undertaking some training in Polyvagal Theory & Somatics (to help with trauma and anxiety held in the body) and work with Couples.
